I did not only give credit to Smartbench, I also gave credit to GLbenchmark..and so you know I have been advocating Smartbench and GL Benchmark back in the day when they first came out.
Linpack went faulty on the 2.2 update and Quadrant was faulty since day 1. Notice I constantly was telling you Quadrant is flawed even though it shows SGS 2 completely destroying the sensation?
Smartbench enforces resolutions on both phones...you don't notice this on wvga as its wvga but both are effected. Think of gaming benchmarks done on a PC, they try out different resolutions to see which performs better. Smartbench benched them both in same resolution as you would on a PC, which seems fair.
If you feel smartbench is incorrect, feel free to contact the developer of smartbench at xda (username: Acei ), he is always willing to work with people to improve his benchmark, smartbench has been a community effort to improve upon tested on many devices.

man, yes, Linpack absolutely DOES run at some resolution. Anything running on the display is running at SOME resolution. So get your "facts" straight.
Smartbench is clearly tinkering with the resolution and the way the qhd device interprets that resolution. The same is NOT being done on the wvga device. Period. This is not debatable. Watching the video will clearly show you video proof of this.
And, again, get your "facts" strait. The Galaxy S 2 did not "destroy" the Sensation in the Quadrant. The Sensation finished the test considerably faster, yet somehow rated lower. Morons who only looked at the final score assumed this meant the Galaxy S 2 was faster (which is what the bench is supposedly testing) but anyone who watched it saw the Sensation complete the test significantly faster. Yes, you have a bunch of excuses, like FPS. But the bottom line is the Sensation was running at a higher resolution, so lower fps is expected. And it finished the test significantly faster.
I don't care to contact the makers of any bench tests. I saw the sensation clearly finish the quadrant faster, and clearly score higher on the only test that didn't use the resolution at all. You chose to say that isn't valid in your own opinion, and I chose to say no other bench is any more valid, in my opinion. at the end of the day, there is NOT this clear evidence that the Galaxy S 2 has a better processor, or a better performance. When you claimed that was the case, you were either mistaken or just making crap up. Because looking at the time it took each device to finish the quadrant, and the score of each device on the linpack, both indicates the Sensation is the faster device (even with less RAM).
